[Winner - TheGreatErenan!] Micro strategic starting unit tournament
Since the new season in Outwitters started, I've been left feeling slightly bored with it. That's when I decided to try something different, and the idea of the "strategic starting unit league" was born.
The first rule of the tournament is: You are not allowed to build any units. You have to finish the game using only the starting units. I have no idea if this will work, which is why I am going to keep the tournament as small as possible. 6-8 people max. This also has the advantage that everyone will be in the top 10 Rules
I would also like to apologise in advance to Gfich for creating another tournament . As you can see from the rules this will not be one for normal tournament players. Players
Results Results are here Final Standings

RE: Micro strategic starting unit tournament
You don't have to applogize, anyone can create a tournament, doesn't matter if he's not happy.
I'm not in anyway, I think the battles won't be rly interesting. I may be wrong ^^ You can ask a... (drawing by Chemoeum) |

I'll let you know if you are wrong though, and you can join the next one |

RE: Micro strategic starting unit tournament
Have you at least played 1 friendly to see if it would work? I'm guessing there would be a huge P1 advantage. The first attacker will likely win.
I do like the idea of constraining the normal game rules to create a different game that needs new strategies. Maybe only spawn a specific type of unit? Only specials would probably be quite interesting. But, some reasonable testing with 2-3 players should be done first, don't you think? |

RE: Micro strategic starting unit tournament
Perhaps allow 1 special spawn.
O, wait, that'll break Reaper... |

RE: Micro strategic starting unit tournament
I was intrigued by this, but yes, I suppose P1 will have a big advantage. The extra wits that P2 has cannot be used effectively.
Anyway, I agree that tournaments like this are pretty interesting. Something like a "Spawn ONLY Runners" tournament, or "Snipers only". |

I have tried a friendly and a few "pass n play" games. P1 didn't have as much of an advantage as I thought they would - but that could just be down to stupid mistakes. The special idea is a good one, but it ended up with both the bases surrounded by bombshells, and neither willing to attack. Maybe if we ban scallies? Another idea was that you are only allowed to build one of each unit, but that was impossible to keep track of, even when playing against myself. I'm happy to make it even smaller - 4 people?

I wish I thought about this - sound more interesting. Would you like to try a "runners only" game? |
